about us
Welcome to Deco Hostel, a special place in a special city. Krakow attracts more visitors - Polish and foreign - than any other city in the country. With a population of just under one million, Krakow itself is equally impressive: a city that ranks with Prague and Vienna as one of the architectural gems of Central Europe, with an Old Town which retains an atmosphere of fin-de-sičcle stateliness..
One of the largest in Europe, Krakow seethes with life all year round. During the summer, pedestrians find themselves negotiating the maze of café tables that fill the square, along with a host of shops, antique dealers, restaurants, bars, and clubs.
We opened Deco Hostel because we love Krakow and we want you to fall in love with it as well. The idea of the hostel was for you to still enjoy the atmposphere of Krakow after wandering the streets of this magical city.
Deco Hostel is located in a reconstructed tenement house, which was built in the 1930s and the spirit of the Inter-war Period can still be sensed within its walls today. This place has its own style and could not have been created anywhere else but here, in Krakow. All the rooms have the unconventional decor inspired by the Art Deco style and bear the names of the famous figures of the period. Here, you will be brought back to the times when the world was full of admiration for Marlene Dietrich and Greta Garbo and fashion was dictated by the likes of Coco Chanel. Give into these new experiences and you will discover that you have found the right place for you.
